Midnight Thoughts: Can you work too much?
Is there such a thing as working too much? During these times where some find themselves unemployed, I am asking myself if I am working too much. Isn't that crazy? I feel blessed that I can still work. I feel a bit guilty too. I know I am doing what I can to contribute and… Continue reading Midnight Thoughts: Can you work too much?
Social Distancing Made Me Do It.
When you're in self isolation, you're forced to sit at home and with all of this time on our hands, we tend to find new hobbies. Well, mine was in the form of Tik Tok.

But then I gave it up through that Summer because I wanted… Continue reading Midnight Thoughts: Starting Keto, Cold Turkey!

Midnight Thoughts: Marriage is Compromise, Fixing Myself.
I don't even know why this popped in my head but it could be that I was scrolling through Instagram and happened to view this post... Compromise is the first word I think of.
